ieee8021SpanningTreeBridgeHelloTime

Module: IEEE8021-SPANNING-TREE-MIB

OID (symbolic): IEEE8021-SPANNING-TREE-MIB::ieee8021SpanningTreeBridgeHelloTime

OID (numeric): 1.3.111.2.802.1.1.3.1.1.1.14

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Timeout

Access: read-write

Description: The value that all Bridges use for HelloTime when this Bridge is acting as the root. The granularity of this timer is specified by IEEE Std 802.1D-1998 to be 1 second. An agent may return an SNMP badValue error (or its equivalent if another protocol is used) if a set is attempted to a value that is not a whole number of seconds.

The value of this object MUST be retained across reinitializations of the management system.

What is ieee8021SpanningTreeBridgeHelloTime?

The HelloTime this bridge would use network-wide if it became root, settable from 1-10 seconds; changing it only affects behavior once this bridge is actually elected root.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.111.2.802.1.1.3.1.1.1.14
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> IEEE8021-SPANNING-TREE-MIB::ieee8021SpanningTreeBridgeHelloTime

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.111.2.802.1.1.3.1.1.1.14.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> IEEE8021-SPANNING-TREE-MIB::ieee8021SpanningTreeBridgeHelloTime.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.111.2.802.1.1.3.1.1.1.14.1 s <value>
